    Has to be Skyrim. Have put in nearly 150 hours and I still have a massive quest log that makes me whimper a bit every time I look at it. If and when I ever do them all, Im actually thinking about starting a new character more or less straight away. I just dont seem to tire of it, theres always a new location to see, quest to do, or skill to level. Unreal, never had this with any SP game before.

    I have Skyrim, haven't even started it yet. I need to finish Dark Souls first.

    Spent a lot of my childhood staring at this or something very similar...



    Good times.
    I'm playing Skyrim at the moment, one of the best I've ever played.

    Best advice is to complete any half finished or relatively short games you have before you start Skyrim. Once you're in, theres no getting out I find! I have the new Deus Ex in the shrink wrap still and Im actually thinking of replaying Skyrim again before starting that. Insane.

    I hear that! I finished Demon Souls before Christmas, then got stuck into Dark Souls...then after that it's Skyrim.

    If i walked away from Dark Souls now i'd just be dissapointed in myself given how many can't finish the game.

    I played through Zelda Windwaker 3 times, and Twilight Princess twice, and I like to spend hours cutting the grass and throwing cuckoos around. I'd say the hours spent rack up to a week at least.

    Def wasted half my youth on the Sims.

    And if one was to collectively count all the hours spent playing various Mario Karts....scary.

    Wargames defcon 1 was the first game i had on my PS1 (i got alien trilogy too but only my dad played that, it scared the sheet out of me) The multiplayer on it was fantastic, Giant robotic walkers vs army tanks and helicopters, me and my friends spent hours and hours on that game. Then there was future cop LAPD which had epic co op and deathmatch modes, or you could fight on your own against the sky captain which always freaked me out.
